Moving the race to April would set the starting time later for European viewers, because then it would be after Europe has moved to DST and Australia out of it, so it's two hours later than it would be in March, even if starting time is same. This happened in 2006 when Melbourne was only 3rd race due to Commonwealth Games. But then of course, if they go later in the year, days become shorter, so it's more difficult to find ideal time.
